Arabian (Saturday) nights
As more and more Middle Eastern money floods the Premier League, you would have thought that there would be a thriving wealth of football talent in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. It is a long way from Wigan Athletic in more ways than one, but there are similarities with Latics as well in the rich oil nations.
The Gunners Ole Their Way Past Wigan

Young upcoming star passes practical
One of Cockney Latic and Wigan Athletic Supporters Club sponsors has had a major succes in getting one of our up and coming players through his practical driving test.

Life after Watson as past player returns
The Youth team now has their new coach after Dave Watson was lured away to the Toon, ex Wigan Athletic player John Doolan didn’t need asking twice when he was given the opportunity to come back to the place he enjoyed playing with our current manager Roberto Martinez.
The fans are Unique, oh yes we are
It’s true, the Wigan Athletic manager Roberto Martinez has said so, we are unique. When the chips are down, Latics fans don’t get on the players or managers back, they get behind the team and that makes us the best.
Redefining the ‘Short Corner’
You’ve heard of the term David vs Goliath, well Saturday threw up a whole different scenario. At the DW, it was David vs David.
Big Dave to sign over the Club!!!

Whelan has taken us from the bottom division to the top division against all the odds, some people forget that in the predicament we find ourselves in right now!!!
